    Hi Dev,


     


    The innertText property returns a string. So, there is no need to use the Set statement to assign the sysval variable. Here is the corrected line:




     sysval = page1....Table("ctl00_cphMainContent_rgGrid_ctl00_Header").Cell(0, i).innerText

    I think we would need the entire line to troubleshoot, as part of it seems to have been omitted.  That message most often comes up when you have a bunch of objects (object1.object2.object.3) and one of them is not recognized.
